The Elegant Gathering: Art, Politics, and Collecting in...

Panel 2: Calligraphy and Poetry. This panel looks at different forms of calligraphy and writing, with attention towards the revitalization of calligraphy as mode of conversation and act of performative display. We are also interested to look at the context of yaji or elegant gatherings and the ways in which aspects of writing -- choice of text, inscribing and re-inscribing -- intertwine with concepts of gift exchange, reciprocity and exchange of ideas. Sponsored by the University of California, Berkeley, the Institute of East Asian Studies and the Asian Art Museum, San Francisco.

[Phillipa1]

(shakes his head, raises his eyebrow)

On your imaginary forces, work.

Think,when we talk of horses,that you see them,

Printing their proud hooves in the receiving earth...for tis your thoughts which now must deck our kings.

Carry them, jumping o'ertimes, turning

The accomplishment of many years

Into an hour glass.

When I see something beautiful, a quote often falls into my mind. Sometimes, it takes me a while to figure out why.

I got this one already (24 hours)
